Napa Valley Cafe

"Easy spot for a yummy breakfast with friends right in downtown Napa. 👩🏻‍🍳 SERVICE: Staff here was super friendly and patient with our requests. You order at a cashier and then head to self-seating but everything is super clean and staff is always walking around checking up on you. 🍩 FOOD: I loved the bagel I tried, not too tough and not too doughy. Their house cream cheeses were great too (particularly loved the scallion one). But, it seems like locals are coming here for their desserts!! These donuts were awesome: so large and the glazes tasted fresh and homemade, not fake. 💵 PRICE: Definitely on the pricier side as this is in downtown. I believe just a simple toasted bagel with cream cheese is almost $9! Know what to expect for the area. Didn't have to wait for a spot, though it seems like this gets busy on the weekends. Definitely eager to come back on another trip to Napa."
